Special Exhibit
Presidents of the
United States Quilt
Made by Shirley Kerstetter
of Spring Hill, Florida
It features a hand embroidered presidential seal and portraits of 43 U.S. presidents painstakingly done in needlepoint -- a ten-year labor of love! She designed each portrait using historical photos that are about the size of an index card. The presidential seal is surrounded by semicircular scenic motifs of Washington D.C.'s historic sites.
The back of the quilt is artistically designed with soaring eagles.

I had the pleasure of attending the show today and I must say the quilts were lovely. I made sure to buy a raffle ticket for the beautiful quilt set being offered. And I was thrilled to win a door prize. The quilt boutique was fun with a variety of unique items for sale, you can bet I left with a bagful and that was before I visited the vendor area which had some great items as well. The show continues on Saturday Nov.3.
